The consequences of host heterogeneity for parasite transmission depend on how host infectiousness is determined

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study proposes two contrasting scenarios for how host infectiousness is determined: recipient dependence and donor dependence. These scenarios fundamentally alter how host heterogeneity shapes parasite transmission, demonstrating that the process by which infectiousness is determined is crucial for understanding the consequences of host ...

The core 2 beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase-mucin encoded by bovine herpesvirus 4 was acquired from an ancestor of the African buffalo [PDF]

, 2003
peer reviewedThe Bo17 gene of bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) is the only viral gene known to date that encodes a homologue of the cellular core 2 beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase-mucin type (C2GnT-M). To investigate the origin and evolution of the

Kaempferol Protects Intestinal Health in Chinese Forest Musk Deer Possibly by Regulating Intestinal Microbiota and Inhibiting the NF‐κB/NLRP3 Signaling Pathway

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Kaempferol modulates the tryptophan metabolism pathway by increasing the abundances of Christensenellaceae R7 group, Bacteroides, and Blautia and reducing that of Rikenellaceae RC9 gut group, thereby significantly increasing the levels of ILA and IAA. This process inhibits the activation of NF‐κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway, reduces pro‐inflammatory factor

Failed Mucosal Allostasis Distinguishes Murine IgG‐ From IgE‐Mediated Recurrent Severe Anaphylaxis

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study investigates IgE‐ and IgG‐mediated pathways in acute and recurrent anaphylaxis using a murine ASA‐PSA model, assessing barrier integrity, immune activation and tissue remodelling across pulmonary and intestinal compartments. Recurrent IgE‐ and IgG‐mediated anaphylaxis produces divergent mucosal outcomes despite comparable systemic severity ...

Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Testing Options

, 2003
A review of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) dynamics is followed by a review of test efficiency measures. BVDV diagnostic challeneges are then discussed with attention to its pathogenesis during pregnancy and fetal effects.

Key insights into biosecurity risks, communication preferences and behaviour change drivers among livestock transporters in Australia

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
The transportation of livestock poses an increased risk of disease transmission, with transportation vehicles acting as vectors for disease. Biosecurity management within the livestock industry is therefore critical to reduce the risk of disease transmission. This study investigated the current biosecurity practices of stakeholders within the livestock

Equine coronavirus: Investigating seroconversion and faecal shedding patterns in naturally occurring field infections

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Equine coronavirus (ECoV) is an increasingly recognised cause of pyrexia and enteric disease in the horse. Objectives To (1) evaluate if horses seroconvert after clinical ECoV infection and (2) investigate the pattern of faecal excretion of ECoV to determine the optimal testing moment with the overall aim of helping veterinarians in ...

Phenotypic Florfenicol Resistance in floR‐Harbouring Flavobacterium psychrophilum Isolates (CC‐ST90): A Case Study From Danish Freshwater Rainbow Trout Aquaculture

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monitoring antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in fish pathogens is essential for supporting sustainable aquaculture. In this study, susceptibility testing and genome sequencing were used to characterize the AMR profile of seven Flavobacterium psychrophilum originating from Danish rainbow trout farms (2019–2022).

Plant‐Based Production of Human Major Histocompatibility Complex Class II Molecules

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) protein triggers adaptive immune responses by presenting antigens on antigen‐presenting cells (APCs) to be recognised by CD4+ T cells. Recombinant MHC II proteins are effective for the analysis of peptide‐binding interaction, detection of antigen‐specific T‐cells and clinical testing for donor‐
